I am disappointed he didn't get around to comparing cuisines - rice against wheat, filter coffee against tea, toddy against bhang, dosai against paratha, there's a whole ocean of difference there. I had a boss once who got away with the oddest behavior. He had a habit of getting impossibly drunk and then singing Britney Spears hits at the top of his voice while shirtless while standing on the dinner table every time there was a company dinner. It was not black mail worthy, or in any way remarkable because he did it so often - everyone came to resent it, but expect it. If this is Aakar Patel's usual behavior then there's nothing remarkable after his first or second column, no?
